Smoked Out Berry & Purple Makeup Look

Published on August 4, 2012 by Shrilata in Tutorials

This is a pretty simple Berry-Purple smoked out look which is very apt fall & also this is a season of darkened & smoked out looks with deep lips.

For Face:

Products Used:

1. Korres Antiageing Primer (Love this one! )

2. Lakme Perfect Radiance Foundation.

3. Revlon Colorstay Mineral Finishing Powder in Sunkiss Radieux.

After moisturizing the face apply a good primer. For dry skin I would prefer moisturizing primer like Korres one or if you have dull looking skin then go for a luminizing one. If you have visible pores on your skin then go for pore perfecting primers from NYX or Benefit which will smoothen out the skin covering the pores along with nice dewey glow. Then go the foundation of your choice (according to skin type). I have used Lakme Perfect Radiance Foundation here which gives a nice dewey glow without going OTT. Haven’t used any blush & just dusted some Revlon Mineralize Skin Finish on cheeks & all over face for warm glow.

For Lips:

Products Used:

Maybelline Colorsensational The Jewels Lipstick in Berry Brilliant

For lips use some deep shades like Berry’s, Red’s or Plum’s if you are comfortable. Here I have used Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick The Jewels Berry Brilliant.

For Eyes:

Products Used:

1. MAC Paint Pot in constructivist.

2. Cocoa Star eyeshadow from two faced natural at night palette.

3. Berry shade from Sleek i divine sunset palette

4. Inglot pearl 446 eyeshadow

5. Revlon eyeliner pencil in black.

6. MAC Zoom Fast Black Lash Mascara

For eyes I have used most of the shades from palettes rather than individuals. You see I am running out of eyeshadow collection & will be restocking it very soon. Looking for good palettes. Pour down your suggestion in the comment section below. Will be coming up with detailed tutorial for the look but for now to summarize use a dark brown cream as a base with dark brown eyeshadow to set it. Then Blend in a berry shade on the crease & a purple on the outer ‘v’ extending along the half of the crease.
